Investor Loses $1.13 Billion On Bear Stearns

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...=patrick. net

The top investor, Joseph Lewis (a fellow Londoner), lost $1.13 Billion after paying $107 per share and buying 9.7% of the bank. He lost half his fortune.

There's no UK equivalent for the US expression "well dayum" but.... if ever there was a justification for diversification, this is it!
